Ghost forest in Upolu Island, Sāmoa

The impact of sea-level rising triggered by climate change can be seen along the coastlines in Upolu Island, Sāmoa where saltwater encroaches on the land and overtakes the fresh water that deciduous trees rely upon for sustenance. The salty water slowly poisons living trees, leaving a haunted ghost forest of dead and dying wood that can be seen during low-tide before it's covered by high-tide.
